Okay, I just had to post to this thread. Great idea, Maggie!
I HATE PEOPLE WHO TALK ON CELL PHONES WHILE DRIVING! You know the ones I'm talking about. They sit at green lights because they're too busy talking to notice it's green. They sit in the drive through at the bank long after the car ahead of them has moved on. They cut you off because they're too busy talking to notice you're there. It's difficult to talk and look at the same time.
I HATE PEOPLE WHO WALK DOWN THE STREET WHILE TALKING ON A CELL PHONE. These people can't even go for a leisurely walk without the phone glued to their ear. Everyday while waiting for Tiffany to get out of school, I see the same mothers walking 20 paces in front of their small children paying more attention to their call than to them. Betcha if one was snatched, they'd never notice. Trust me, ladies, you won't die if you miss one phone call.
I HATE PEOPLE WHO TALK ON CELL PHONES WHILE IN A RESTAURANT, A MOVIE THEATER OR ANY OTHER PUBLIC PLACE WHERE PEOPLE GATHER TO RELAX. Ken is the biggest offender here. We can't go to dinner or a movie without his phone going off. Does he get right off? Hell no. It's annoying and it's rude.
Most of all, I HATE PEOPLE WHO, KNOWING WE HAVE A HOME PHONE, CALL THE CELL PHONES BECAUSE THEY KNOW THAT NO MATTER WHERE WE ARE, THEY'LL GET US. That's the reason I keep mine off. I've had people tell me they tried over and over again to call me, but my phone was off. Well, duh. I'm sitting at home, moron. Call my home phone number where I have unlimited minutes and just maybe you'll get me. Don't call my cell phone to chit-chat. I don't chit-chat especially on a phone that costs me money!
Whew, thanks for the vent. After this hectic week of working, shopping and cleaning up after two men it felt great!!!

In response to your size 0 question. I have a friend who wears a size 0. She's a waif of a girl. Until recently, I wore a 2. I'm now up to a 3 (thanks to the dropping off of some stress in my life) and hopefully, will keep going until I at least reach a 7!

Those shoes are the worst! I saw a newscaster with them on yesterday and couldn't help but wonder how in the devil she even stood up in them. They made her feet look huge. They look silly for sure. I think you have to have awfully skinny feet to wear them. But then, I lived in platform shoes at one time and wonder to this day how I ever managed it. I tried a pair on again a few weeks ago and didn't get far before I almost fell off of them.

" That's the reason I keep mine off. "
Same here. My phone is on two or three minutes a day and ONLY TWO PEOPLE even know the number. I use it once or twice a week to make quick calls when necessary, but other than that, I basically have it for emergencies.
Everyone who counts knows my schedule and where I am at any time of the day. Anyone else can talk to my home answering machine.
Leave the cell phone on all day? I don't need another leash.
What ticks ME off about cell phone users are the ones that have conversations in public at full "normal voice" or louder levels and expect you not to listen. It's hard to tell whether they are just that ignorant of their voice levels or they are playing the "lookit me- I'm important!" game with their phone.
I've gotten to the point that when they finish, I ask them about the call. "So how is your uncle with diarrhea anyway?" The answer is usually "That was a private conversation" to which I answer "Oh no it wasn't."

LOL, replay. I'll have to remember that one.

The two men are my son and Ken. Threesome? Hell, I'm too old for that. I'd probably have a heart attack or something. I will admit to giving it a try when I was in my early 20's. Didn't care for it.

OH Replay do we agree on this one!!!!!

Yellowstone, when an idiot makes their business public by having loud conversations in public they have NO business telling someone to F---Off after foisting their personal life onto innocent bystanders.
They need a good slap!

What about if your in a hotel lobby or at the auto parts store or at any place of business and someone is using a phone?? So you here a conversation going on and you think that it invloves you ONLY because you can hear it, so you stick your nose in their business? So what, everyone is supposed to be totally quiet just because you are in the room??

I hate phones period!
How about the people who jump ahead in a line, or when driving, those that will speed up on the left when the lane is closed ahead and butt in rather than wait their turn..
I was in a store the other day, and waiting in line, had one person ahead of me checking out.. a woman came waltzing up and went past myself and the lady checking out.. and stood at the end of the counter, and put her merchandise down. I waited to see if she was just asking the cashier a question or what... sure enough when the woman in front of me was through, this other woman just pushed her merchandise down towards the cashier.. before I could say anything.. the cashier told her to wait her turn....some people are so darn pushy...

I sure agree with the cellphone thing. Other than that what really gets my blood boiling is drivers who will not stay on their side of the road. It is getting to the point that I almost get side-swiped every time I go out. And trucks and school buses will just about run you off the road. We joke here in Kentucky and say who ever crosses the yellow line first gets the right of way.

Okay.. might as well get it all out before I start cooking..
I hate the N.R.A. calling to ask for a donation every week.. when I tell them not to call back.. they ignore me and say it is my husband they want to speak with... and of course he is never home...so this goes on and on.
I hate that women are not treated the same as men on a daily basis.
I can call and talk until I am blue in the face in a customer service situation.. and always get the run-around.. My husband will call just once and these same people will suddenly snap to attention.... just pizzes me off!!!!

I have to agree especially to Cheryls complaint about using cell phones in resturants and movies...theres no reason why someone has to talk on a phone in these places.It is VERY rude and pisses me off to no end.I had a cell phone for a year.I ended up using it 6 times...when the contract expired,I kept the phone and now I can still call 911 if I have to-thats all I really need it for.Cheryl, tell Ken to shove that phone up his ass...sideways.

Tell them he was killed in a tragic gun cleaning accident and to leave you the hell alone.

No rant, no rave, no vent.
Totally enjoying all the preparations in getting ready for Christmas. The tree's up and decorated [Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree, how lovely are your branches].... the inside decorations are out [Deck the Hall with Bows of Holly - fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la]. We'll be decorating the outside of the house..."it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas....everywhere you go". .. And I love it. 'Tis the season of giving and remembering why we celebrate this holiday in the first place.
And no....I've not been into the eggnog YET!!

Thinking about my auctions twelve ???????......
Here's a very strong warning....... DON'T.
Do NOT discuss them.
You are OUT OF LINE.
Can't take the heat, you feebledickhead, then get out of the kitchen but DO NOT discuss, mention, or touch in anyway on my auctions.
If that's all the ammo you have, to mention my auctions and my husband, yousickfreak, then you're the complete loser we all know you to be and worse.

Drop it twelve, that's innapropriate. It can also bounce back on you VERY quickly.

twelve, I can take (or leave ) your crap but mentioning my auctions is low even for a piece of garbage like you.
Talk to neroter...it didn't win her any friends.
You accuse me of shill bidding or anything else and I will report you to Vendio. You are completely out of line and out of your feeble mind.
Quit while you're only in it up to your neck.
I , NOT YOU, had the courage to post with my seller ID.....for YOU to abuse that is beyond disgusting.
You hate me? Fine, let it eat you up but DO NOT mention my auctions again.

Crowfarm, a couple of years ago twelvepole spent months on the boards saying that I was ripping off my customers even though he didn't know my auction IDs. I have never ripped off any of my customers online or in RL but it was his feeble attempt to get back at me because I wouldn't cower and run from him in the Outlook.
I seriously doubt if he'd cross that line and hurt your auctions. It seems to be a recurring neocon threat though when they feel empowered by someone else on a chat board. Either they threaten your business, or make up stories that you are harming theirs or they tattle to Vendio. Very childish to say the least and I'm sure it deters others from ever participating here and making this board more than it offers now.
